Are these carnivorous bats cuddling? 🦇 New footage from Costa Rica reveals that spectral bats, usually seen as solitary, have been seen hugging each other to sleep, sharing food, and flying in pairs. Scientists believe this unexpected social behavior may be a survival strategy as forests shrink and climates continue to change. #Bats #Carnivores #Adaptations #AnimalBehavior #Science | Museum of Science, Boston

🇺🇸 Of the 119 species of bats that inhabit Costa Rica, only two species of the genus Lophostoma ( L. silvicolum and L. brasiliensis) are associated with termite mounds. It is believed that the reason they have chosen to live in termite mounds is because the heat produced by the termites inside the nest helps the bats to regulate their body temperature. 🇨🇷Los murciélagos Lophostoma silvicolum perforan huecos en termiteros vivos, las termitas al ser seres vivientes ayudan a regular la temperat

In a place with insane biodiversity, you never know what you might find under a banana leaf! And sloths definitely aren’t the only cute animals in Costa Rica. Tent-making bats are always such amazing gems to find in the rainforest and incredible rainforest builders. They create these tents by biting and folding a large leaf around them. This protects them from the heavy tropical rains. Very smart since they practically have an endless supply of shelter. Keep an eye out for those holes at the top

This ocelot is about to get a surprise and come face-to-face with a coati in a bat box. This bat box was set up by Osa Conservation in Costa Rica to attract bats to an area that is being reforested. The land used to be cattle pasture. It didn’t take long for wildlife to make its way back into the reforested areas.
